“Power Marketing” … online videos used as a powerful and cost-effective strategy for small businesses. Most Small business owners don’t have the time or money to focus on marketing. In most cases, they buy some ads and put up a sign and hope for the best. In fact, the traditional ways don’t work anymore to help companies get found by prospective customers and clients (except for a few niches such as bail bondsmen and insurance brokers). Adding video to your website gives a competitive advantage, but the big surprise is that it can take very little time and money, and you don’t have to own a computer or even touch a camera. A video not only makes it more likely that your prospects will find you, but it also makes them more likely to buy from you as well.
